Offered in: English and 1 more

You haven’t truly experienced Rome until you’ve admired the Colosseum and walked through the Roman Forum, the very heart of the Roman Empire. You’ll relive the days when Rome was known as Caput Mundi, the capital of the world. Your visit begins inside the Flavian Amphitheater, known as the Colosseum, named after a colossal statue that once stood nearby. Built in 70 AD by Emperor Vespasian, it remains the largest amphitheater ever constructed. Feel the thrill of walking through one of the favorite entertainment venues of ancient Romans: this is where gladiatorial battles and spectacular games took place. From here, continue to the Roman Forum, the political, religious, and social center of ancient Rome for nearly a thousand years. This is history brought to life, and you’ll have the privilege of exploring it up close. The experience concludes with a stunning walk along the iconic Via dei Fori Imperiali before returning to the port with unforgettable memories of the Eternal City.
